Michael’s calm gaze quickly turned into a glare. “If you’ve forgotten, my dear, dear son, your mother is still my wife, and I’ll mention her name whenever, wherever, and however the fuck I want. The sooner you learn to live with it the better. How about that?”Vincent scoffed. “I remember everything. It is you who has forgotten that you’re dead to us. You’re no longer a husband, or a father, or fucking anything that has anything to do with us.”Michael clicked his tongue, amused by what had just come out of his son’s mouth. “You can say whatever you want to make yourself feel better, Vince. Yet the reality is that the blood that runs through your veins is mine, as is the name you still use and all the heritage that comes with it. If there’s so much hate in you for me, why are you still a Halest, and why is your brother? Isn’t it symbolic of me—your father? The man you claim to hate. The man you say is dead to you? Why are you still addicted to this luxurious lifestyle that I provided?

Ruby thanked the woman before shutting herself in the stall. She turned on the Bluetooth in her ear.“Yup. What’s the status?” Fritz asked.“You were right. It’s just a receptionist. She said someone would come and fetch me. I’m guessing she wasn’t exactly talking about—” she was going to continue when she heard the washroom door open and footsteps fill the floor outside her stall.Ruby took out her phone from the pocket of the jacket, pressed mute, and buried it firmly in the front pocket of her jeans.“Get out!” A masculine voice boomed, and Ruby could tell the man wasn’t in the best of moods.Getting up from the seat, she removed her earpiece and slid it into her boot.“Come on, we don’t have all the time in the world.” The man huffed out. “Fine. If that’s how you wanna play. Lex, break the door.”“Fuck, man. Chill.” Ruby unlocked the door and yanked it open before anyone could fucking break it.The moment she stepped out, she was instantly confronted by three men. However, only on

Ruby had seen many tortured people in her life, including some of the most horrific atrocities in Fritz’s den itself, but this…this made her want to throttle whoever did this to her. And something told her there was only one man capable of such brutality. Michael fucking Halest.The woman swiped her tears away and grimaced as pain shot through her arm with the slightest effort. “Does it matter?” She brushed her upper arm, hugging herself as if she was cold. She smiled sadly. “Whoever I used to be I can’t be that person anymore.”“Did Michael do this to you?” Ruby squatted in front of the woman, her arms still cuffed behind her back. “I swear my patience with that man has run out.”“I don’t know who that is,” the woman said, frowning gently. “But yes, there was a man and a woman. Do you know them?”“A woman?”“Yeah. You know the type you see on Instagram reels? Big boobs, fake lips, and a whole bunch of needless attitudes.”Ruby scoffed out a huff at the woman’s attempt to lighten the

Before walking past Gael, however, Fritz paused and took a step back, muttering close to his ear. “Oh, and we found some survivors for ya!” Ruby is with them. She is one of my guys, and she insists on staying. Normally, I would make her follow my rules, but she has a personal vendetta this time, and I can’t get in the way of that. You’ll need someone to show you around anyway. Take good care of her or this fucker Michael would be the least of your concerns. Just saying.” He chuckled, lifting his hands as if he didn’t mean to offend anyone, but once his laughter subsided, his dark eyes glinted with destruction. He clenched his jaw. “Just. Saying.”The sound of tires hitting gravel reached their ears, shooting smoke into the air, as Fritz and his men sped into the darkness and quickly vanished out of sight.———“It can’t be all over like this,” Natasha gritted out, staring at the phone and the list of outgoing calls on the screen. None of the calls she made actually went through. They c

Ajax had been sitting in his car, silently watching everything from a distance.Mostly because Gael didn’t want any more interference or someone standing in the way of his team and Michael.The fact that he allowed Fritz and his men to take over on their behalf already felt extreme, and Ajax didn’t think that testing the FBI agents’ patience would get him anywhere. He was simply grateful for all the additional help he was getting, and most importantly, he couldn’t wait to see Vincent out of that bastard’s clutches.However, waiting in the car had its own drawbacks. He was agitated from the start. His palms were clammy and his heart was pounding too fast. It had to be one of the few times in his life when watching everything quietly was physically hurting him from the inside—cutting him, making him bleed.There was this fireball of sheer panic bouncing around his ribcage, making it impossible for him to sit back and do nothing to help his brother. He should be out there, shouldn’t he?
